Lyrics

Both of us are lost, but for a moment, we are lost together I wonder who you are and how you are today, how's the weather? Used to be an apple tree, live by the sea, but now that time is over It bears remembering the only certain thing is each other I realise time's a circular line If you need a looking glass, you can borrow mine Now the long-awaited rain is pouring down, so I will go outside Time to take in all the clothes left hanging out, on the line to dry But while I'm here I'll say, kid, you're gonna be fine If you need a place to rest (hm-hm-hm-hm-hm), you can borrow mine Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm It's one thing to travel far And another thing entirely to return to the start
